Ummah Quran Project Recitation Discussion

[Abu Muslim]

In the name of Allah, The Supreme, the Just

Zis is ze topic where we can have the discussions and ideas insha'Allah.

Input would be appreciated, is there anything that should be changed, anything you dont agree with? Anything missing or to be added? Also, we're undecided whether to put transliteration in aswell eg. yaseen, wal Quran il hakeem etc., what does everyone think?

Suggestions, how you doing with the surahs, tips, everytihng else, squash it in here. Ok and on that note, its fajr.

I remember in beginning i used to learn from listening and reading transliteration to make sure i heard the proper letters. It may be useful for those who cant read or have trouble reading arabi.

wallahu alim.

[.: Rashid :.]

Yep, transliteration is a very useful help akhi. I understand your point about mistakes but a combination of arabic, transliteration and audio will prevent mistakes insha'Allah.

BTW akhi what browser and what encoding do you use? The arabic you posted in the ayah thread is all like broken up...not joined up properly :S I tried Arabic ISO 8859-6 but didn't make any difference :S

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

If someone has any problems with the arabic displaying, maybe you can try 2 use islamicity.com/quransearch as a secondary thing... it has everything there. or of course if we know the ayah numbers that hav been assigned, can do it from own mushaf

[Umm 'Umarah]

read Surah Yaseen after every Salaah along with surah Ar-Rahman, As-Sajdah Adh-Dhukhaan and Al-Mulk and Surah Waaqi-a’h..if you do this everyday five times... naturally you begin to memorise them. trust me it works Insha'Allah.

Ah, alrighty, insha'Allah the transliteration will be put up but for aiding only, we recommend you read from the arabic as the first source.

ah that stinks about the arabic, I thought there would be problems subhan'Allah, Im using a mac to do everything..so its macosx, so there may be problemos with the arabic. Everyone try to use firefox and if you still have problems, use the mushaf, surah yaseen is chapter 36, more or less halfway.

Try all the different arabic if you can insha'Allah, and then you can tell us which works for windows users..if any..

[Bint Yusuf]

Asalamu Alaykum

Suggestion: Why not add a link/topic for a tafser on the surah you are doing each time? Will help people know what they are memorising:D

Wasalaam

[.: Anna :.]

that is a good idea insha allah maybe u can include tafseer for the ayahs each day wat u think bro? :up:

[.: Anna :.]

btw im on firefox and the arabic displayed properly

Walaykum Salam,
Great idea masha'Allah, I thought about that before...but posting tafseer aswell...erm, I think its a great idea, someone should do that insha'Allah, and it will be better if we give other people responsibilities *smiles*

Ukhtee Anna or Bint Yusuf or Ukhtee Eemaan or Akhee Ibn Sul, you want to do it? I think its better to copy and paste, ayah by ayah rather than giving people a link to tafseer.net because to be honest...hardly anyone will both to click and read it.

I guess its going to have to be the tafseer of ibn katheer aswell, because thats the most popular and widely available. You can set it out like the daily ayah, tafseer of 2 ayaats per day..

[As-Sideeq]

Assalaamu alaikum,

Why not give the meaning and interpretation of each ayah of soorah yaseen for those who don't know arabic (like me), learning the meaning and interpretation is very helpfull and will make you learn each verse more easily insha allah.

Wassalaam.

Alhamdulillah :)

I'm using Linux and firefox...Akhi can you check what font your using and if possible attach/send it to me? I can't remember how you do it in mac...it should be a .ttf file somewhere? Or if you had to download it tell me where you got it from insha'Allah. EDIT: Try /System/Fonts or /Library/fonts ?

I dont mind doing it, maybe i shud like edit it into ur posts where u include the ayahs... put the tafseer below it for those 2-3 ayat in a normal size 2 font not big like the arabic? cos if put into the same reply imo its better so i dnt mind if u do it or i edit it in, or ne other mod wants 2 do i dnt mind either?

[.: Anna :.]

what happened 2 ur reply it got a bit broken i think??

can i remind people to NOT POST OFF TOPIC IN THE SPECIFIC THREADS
also I noticed someone has signed in on the homework for ayahs up til ten? insha allah just sign in for wat the project covered so far. if u know more jst wait til the day comes for it, then sign for those ayahs insha allah?

Argh, dont lie, I wrote that ages and I spent ages trying to get it to work, my internet is so poo. I'll try to remmebr what I said insha'Allah *tries to remember*

And I agree with anna, sign in with the 2 ayahs at a time, and when the time comes you can auto say you know the ayaats if you knwo them already.

Alhamdulillah :)

-Rashid

Akhee, its the system macOSX default font, not like a chosen one, the one configured in the system so I dont know name. You know like in window, when you click bottom right of toolbar and change, like that, so not like in word and stuff, asif.

I dont mind doing it, maybe i shud like edit it into ur posts where u include the ayahs... put the tafseer below it for those 2-3 ayat in a normal size 2 font not big like the arabic? cos if put into the same reply imo its better so i dnt mind if u do it or i edit it in, or ne other mod wants 2 do i dnt mind either?

Whatever you think is best ukhtee, in the post, out the post, delivered by the postman, all them work. I was suggesting a seperate topic because I have studied tafseer and I have found it can get pretty complicated and intense with a lot of information but I guess 2 ayaats should be alright.

[.: Rashid :.]

Akhi it should be saved in /Library/Fonts or /System/Fonts. I think its called Geeza pro or something...I can't get hold of it anywhere :S

Although actually, I remember reading somewhere that arabic font support in firefox was quite bad so it may just be firefox? (works for anna but she's on windows)

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

oh a seperate thread wit the tafseer in it could be good? then it keeps the quran one quite empty and to the point aswel?

[Abu Muslim]

Ah, well if its geeza pro [I dont know because the name does not appear aywhere] but I found it in the system and uploaded it for you *smiles*

Geeza Pro (http://www.dhikrullah.com/downloads/random/Geeza%20Pro.ttf)
Geeza PRO Bold (http://www.dhikrullah.com/downloads/random/Geeza%20Pro%20Bold.ttf)

Tell me if it works insha'Allah..

oh a seperate thread wit the tafseer in it could be good? then it keeps the quran one quite empty and to the point aswel?

Yep, I think thats a better idea personally because tafseers are pretty long, especially when you get to the long ayaats and that way it is more organised. Everyone that is learning, remember to read the tafseer [explanation] ukhtee Anna posts aswell...

[.: Rashid :.]

Ah, well if its geeza pro [I dont know because the name does not appear aywhere] but I found it in the system and uploaded it for you *smiles*

Jazakallah khayr akhi. I tried it, but unfortunately made no difference :( I did a google and found this (http://www.k2.dion.ne.jp/~oibane/aonl/en/font.htm). Apparently its a problem with tashkeel and arabic in firefox. Konqueror doesn't seem to have this problem so insha'Allah soon I'll be switching back to KDE so will just use konqueror for viewing it :)

Jazakallah khayr again for the geeza pro fonts (useful for other apps :))

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

i made the tafsir thread now... i think ur right it is better seperate cos it got 2 be quite a lot!

[Abu Muslim]

Jazak'Allah hu khair ukhtee anna for posting the tafseer along with it, everyone make sure you read it along with memorising the surah.

Took ages to post the last ayatayn, slooow internet. Also, I noticed some mistakes in the transliteration [I copy and paste that bit], dont know why but they seemed to miss out the pronouncing of some letters *scratch* insha'Allah should be alright now though, but we do encourage everyone, read from the arabic.

As you can see, the ayaats are getting longer and a bit more complex, so now require a bit more effort. What we recommend, at least know the translation of keywords in the ayaats so you know what to say.

For example in the last ayah: khalf = behind. If you know that, you know the ayah is about the barrier being put behind them, makes it easier. insha'Allah we will try to highlight keywords in the english and arabic so you can know at least one word in the ayah to make it easier to remember, plus you learn some arabic while you're there *smiles*

Also, tomrow, the ayatayn may be posted later than usual, so we apologise in advance.

found this great software today and look like it would help with memorisation of yasin or ayatul kursi and a few others
very nice
with recitors shaykh mishary al-afasy and sa'ad ghamdi even nicer!

Excellent project Masha'Allah, may Allah reward the bro who started it and all those who participate - Aaameen :)

Im nt gonna join myself, coz I prefer to learn it in private insha'Allah, but indeed its a motivator for us all :up:

Also, wanted to add another useful reference...

http://quran.muxlim.com/

- Concise, easy to search through and read, Transliteration and translations in many languages, also verse-by-verse recitation by Ali al Houdhaify....

Ali al Houdhaify is Masha'Allah an excellent example to listen to for pronunciation (tajweed), they say he has one of the best, if not the best..pronunciation in the world today!

For tarteel...its nice to listen to one of your favorite reciters and try and copycat :)

[.: Rashid :.]

Akhi you forgot to add the audio for today's two ayahs.

I decided to take things into my own hands :p I've made ayah by ayah recitation of surah yaseen ayahs 8-14 by Afasy. I'll PM you the url ;)

I'll make more as we go along if you want or you can make them. (you can copy them onto your server or attach them on ummah in the ya seen thread. They're only a few hundred kB each

-Rashid

[.: Rashid :.]

I'm kinda disappointed I must say by how few people are doing this. This was done for surah Rahman on another forum I posted on and there was a lot of interest (although i admit i didnt join then :o)

Just seems like its me, anna, sulaiman (and possbily also xyz) doing it :(

Needs more publicity in the general section me thinks...

Maybe if we started with a smaller surah it wouldn't seem more daunting and more people would have joined? And we could point out that it doesn't take up your whole day...takes me an average of maybe an hour to learn 2 ayahs and I'm really rubbish at memorising stuff :)

(in hafiz school you have to memorise a "ruku" a day :rubeyes: )

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

baba is doing it too am jst posting the "done homework" on his behalf
hmm but yeh it is a shame we dnt have more people, but alhamdulillah for those who are doing it, there is a benefit insha allah... and mayb others will see wat we are doing here and begin it with us in the next time
of course even if ppl didnt realise to start it with us from beginning they can always make effort 2 catch up what they missed and join us!!

also mayb we will see another smaller surah wd prove more popular in terms of getting ppl on board wit the project...hav 2 wait and see insha allah, bt maybe we can make topic in general n encourage ppl 2 join us b4 we get too far ahead for newcomers 2 catch up easily?

Cool masha'Allah. Didn't realise. You should just post in the thread anyhow, saying you've done the ayahs (even if you did them a few days late)

Cool, didn't realise that many other people were doing it but not posting. You should post insha'Allah (if you can, only takes a few seconds and makes the whole thing better)

Yeah, I felt like lagging behind a bit yesterday, but realised if I did let myself, it'd be doable and I'd do it again and it'd probably get out of control. And I'd be not posting in the thread, and kinda letting the other project people down...

Guess it works for me. May not work for everyone :)

Jazak'Allah for the link, whats unique about this is its a group project to get everyone to join in insha'Allah so we learn together instead of individuals learning own stuff which sometimes they might not have the motivation for otherwise.

Akhee, dont let that put you off [I know its not], feesabililah and its all good, even if one person is doing it, there is benefit insha'Allah. Dont worry, once you learnt surah yaseen in no time, you'll be looking back and saying "alhamdulilah how easy was that, entire Quran, here I come"

But I do get what your saying, there seemed to be a lot more enthusiasm in the threads leading upto it, but ah well, give them time insha'Allah, once they see how much we learning, more people will want to join insha'Alla ta'ala.

I dont mind actually doing Surah Mulk or a shorter surah to coincide with this...for those who are put off by the length of the surah, ma raaykum? [what your guys opinions?]

I was going to say this in the other thread to ukhtee eeman but might aswell post here. We encourage those that are participating to post insha'Allah to benefit OTHERS. If other Ummah members see prominent, popular members participating, this will, bi'ithnillah encourage others to join in also.

You know, follow the choo choo train or follow the sheep or whatever its called. Its like sometimes giving charity is beneficial in private but sometimes it is more beneficial to give it in public [i.e auctions] to encourage others. If you post to encourage others to learn Quran aswell as participating yourself, you will get even more reward insha'Allah ta'la and Allah SWT knows best *smiles*

doing to coincide is okay as long as it doesnt become 2 much 4 ppl so they do a bit here bit there n dnt complete it? bt dif ppl maybe able 2 do yaseen and dif ppl do mulk... as maybe those who know one do not know the other?

neway am off 2 post the tafsir now ia

Is it really that slow? Hmm...

And yeah thats fine, you can link directly to my server then. So no need to upload or anything, I'll just create them and put them in the quran folder (I PMed you the address ;)). It'll be like: Afasy-[ayah number].mp3 so next ones will be called Afasy-14.mp3 and Afasy-15.mp3

I prefer having each ayah seperate because I learn them one ayah at a time (in fact for longer ayahs, each part of an ayah at a time). Insha'Allah shouldn't be a problem to just post 2 links right?

Yeah exactly...there seemed so much enthusiasm in the first thread then now...but alhamdulillah seems like we got a few quiet-non-posting people on board and anna's thread in general has caused a few more people to join :up:

I think we should maybe wait until we finish surah yaseen? Having two might be confusing/too much. If/when we finish yaseen, I wanna move onto mulk and if we have 2 running simultaneously it'll be out of sync etc

Thats no problem akhee if you prefer them split, will leave them like that insha'Allah.

I was thinking surah mulk more for people who wanted to start on a shorter surah or knew surah yaseen, seperate. No one is allowed to enroll on both the surah yaseen and the surah mulk course at same time..

[Eemaan]

abu muslim, can you start a poll thread in ere to see how many peeps are doing this project?

[.: Rashid :.]

akhi Abu Muslim, you've put 14-Afasy.mp3 and 13-Afasy.mp3 for both ayahs 14-15 and 16-17

You need to change the number of the ayah in the link you post ;) e.g. for ayah 16, it would be this (86.11.104.56/quran/16-Afasy.mp3)

Of all the dedicated people who have actually signed up and doing it masha'Allah we have: Akhee rashid, ukhtee Anna, her husband Akhee Baba, akhee sulaiman harun..

You are doing it binafsuki, as is akhee ibn sulaiman I think, as is ukhtee Al Qiyama I think.

Ukhtee bint has shown interest, as has akhee Nami and ukhtee xyz.

I know akhee, I realised after when it was too late. The new ayatayn are posted like 3am in the morning, so tiredness does seem to take its toll and by the time I check, I cant edit anything..

If ukhtee anna could edit it please. Also, its a little confusing, theres 8 ayatayn posted, but theres 7 samples on the server..when there should be 8, but everything is linked, so its a bit *scratch*

[.: Anna :.]

i can edit but can u explain it clearly so i do it correctly? i havent bin using the audio posted so i didnt notice where is a problem wit it or nethnig?

whats binafsukee? you mean loco?

[.: Rashid :.]

the ayahs start at 8, and so far go up to 17

Which reminds me...I need to make tomorrows ayatayn...(even if no one else uses them I do, although I hope someone finds it useful :p)

Anna, just change the numbers in the links posted (the one with the numbers) to the correct ayah number insha'Allah

Akhee zoobz [think thats his name] came up with a great idea in the brothers forum masha'Allah to aid in the learning

Basically you record yourself and post your recitation of the verses of yaseen and then he listens and can correct tajweed, what you doing wrong etc. Maybe a sister who knows tajweed in the ukhuwaat forum can do the same? Just a suggestion.

[.: Anna :.]

that is good idea masha allah, whoever wants to, we can each do it in either bro or sis forum or even on msn... like do it fully segregated but it is good idea :up:

okay i will try 2 do the editting now insha allah

[.: Anna :.]

okay done

Haha my qiraat as well as my voice is awful so won't be getting any recording of me :p

But alhamdulillah I study tajweed anyhow so should insha'Allah be able to correct myself :) I'd be happy to try and correct others also ;)

BTW I think I've reached the point where the amount I know of yaseen is starting to collapse in on itself :( Subhanallah makes you wonder how hufzal quran manage to maintain their status as hufaz. Insha'Allah need to practice what you know in salah to maintain it...otherwise it all starts to melt away :(

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

insha allah can u ask any family member to test u on it from the mushaf and make sure u maintained wat u remembered?
also wat i do in sis forum is i type out the surahs i learned, then u can check it for mistakes or if u missed nething and also then another sister checks it for me... so maybe u can do this cos typing it also helps 2 stick it into ur brain (well for me it does), try 2 keep playing the surah regularly and each day try 2 read over what u learned from the previous days insha allah.

bt totally i understand what u mean, its really sad wen u learn something, then u feel u get a bit confused on it again n muddle it up and u hav 2 go back n try wit it really hard cos u dnt want 2 lose it :(

[.: Anna :.]

www.tafsir.com had an error all day ne1 hav ne idea why? (i dnt understand the error message) i managed 2 use qtafsir.com instead tho it also does hav ibn kathir alhamdulillah but i want my normal tafsir.com back insha allah

Hehe nah...I'm trying not to let my family know what I'm learning/know surah yaseen :) (in case I fall into riya :o)

Good ideas sis :up: Unfortunately I can type arabic at like 5 words per minute :o (I only know about half the keys) but I think the best way is to recite what I know in salah...it helps to establish it in your head.

Glad I'm not the only one that has this problem :D :p

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

lol i type in english letters with the numbers like eg: yaseen wal quran il 7akeem :D

[.: Rashid :.]

Masha'Allah, we've memorised 28% of surah yaseen...its been 11 days :up:

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

alhamdulillah :up:
thanks for giving our percentage, thats encouraging :D

[.: Rashid :.]

mashallah guys youve done a brilliant job.

rashid how much have you revised if your on ayah 13 :o

and anna and rah, what are your methods of memorisation and how long is one ayah takeng you?

sis hav u seen in sisters section that hifdh thread? am using that like just keep typing it each day from memory n typing the new ayahs a few times...
then thinking it thru in my head few times each day 2 check it was retained
erm also normally i recite it aswell 2 learn, and doing the tafsirs is helping learn it aswell.
the dif ayahs are taking dif amounts of time.. hmm like 2days ones were short, so was very quick like i prob done it in 10 or 15 mins :s some of em take longer.. depends if ne unknown vocabulary for me in it then it is more difficult 2 learn, if i understand the meaning of all the words n the grammar of how its constructed, it becomes easier.
were u up 2 sis? same as us or dif place in the surah?

[.: Rashid :.]

15% :)

Erm, I go on here (http://quran.islamicnetwork.com/viewverses.php?q=36&langs=2) and use the recitation by Afasy ayah by ayah. I play the ayah while reading through so I get the pronounciation etc and then divide the ayah into chunks and learn them chunk by chunk.

Actually, recently I've just been putting the ayah in mp3 format onto my phone and listening to it as I walk home (2 miles). You'd be surprised at how easy it is to learn by just listening...I was :) (only problem is you have to keep practising, and some times its not obvious what the letters are so I get home and check)

Learning a longer-type ayah doesn't take long, but its keeping it in your head which is harder. I can spend like 10-15 mins learning a long ayah but then need to spend like another 15-20 to make sure its stuck in my head proper solidly (like the normal surahs you know). Recently I've been getting busier and tryna decrease the time it takes me and as a result the ayahs are more wavey when I recite them...I kinda have to pause after every 2 ayahs to think which ones next :o

If you can't spend that much time practicing, then you should do it in salah. Thats really helpful...you can recite a surah or minimum 3 ayahs in salah so divide it into like blocks of 9/11/13 and recite them in your salah

yah i put it on ipod.
your lickly rashid, your brain is more receptive to retaining new information, mines a bit stubborn @)

i think my problem is im always to afraid to move on until the recitation is perfect and following so recapping everything alone so its fluent and coherant takes around 30 minutes.

ibn suls, how you getting on? :coolbro:

I don't think you should do that...firstly you should listen to quran qirat attentively and while doing something else active your concentration may not be on it...but apart from that, surah yaseen is very long and listening to it over and over won't get any of it into your head. If you're gonna do that, break it into ayahs or groups (pairs?) of ayahs and listen to them over and over. That way you have a much better chance of letting it sink into your brain

And I too am getting to the age where things stick a lot less easily...masha'Allah at the huffaz who graduated at my age. They're the real fortunate ones ;)

And I have the same problem with getting it all fluent etc...

u too know each other.:scratch:

Okay can we not turn this into a chat thread please... stay on topic or go post in a different thread insha allah. we really dont want this to become pages and pages of nothing.

[Abu Muslim]

I know this is like 3rd time mentioned, but basically, I wont be able to post for a few days, insha'Allah max 2 days so Ive posted for 2 days in advance but for a few days if Im not here, can someone post the ayaatayn please, in the same format, anna200uk maybe?

Allah knows best how long I will be away for..

bro rashid should take over inshallah :up:

[.: Anna :.]

yeh rashid can post the ayahs insha allah and i will continue 2 do the tafsir?

[.: Anna :.]

yeh rashid can post the ayahs insha allah and i will continue 2 do the tafsir?
rashid do u agree 2 this? cos i think abu muslim is gone for couple of days we dnt want 2 get behind!!!

[Eemaan]

^^

:scratch: come on rashid :up:

[.: Anna :.]

:scratch:

okay.. i think i will put the ayahs insha allah we're runnin out of time :S

[.: Rashid :.]

Err does it have to be before or after 12:00?

lol I'm falling slightly behind with the ayah learning myself :o :o Insha'Allah can catch up now before I sleeep

I'll post the new ones as well unless someone's posted them?

BTW for annoying reasons...my IP has changes so the old links to afasy qirat won't work...new ones should insha'Allah

EDIT: OK I see its been posted. I'll post the code here, and you can copy paste it into the post as I can't edit it.


Surah Yaseen, verse 32-33:
Salah Bukhatir - Download (http://www.dhikrullah.com/downloads/quran/memorisation/yaseen16.mp3)
Meshary Efaasy - Ayah 32 Download (http://86.7.174.149/quran/32-Afasy.mp3)
Meshary Efaasy - Ayah 33 Download (http://86.7.174.149/quran/33-Afasy.mp3)



Follow the same format for the next post, just change 32/33 for 34/35 and 16 for 17. Or I'll do it...

EDIT: Apparently the BBCode appears in the post rendered instead of as code, despite being in [ code ] tags :S I think you can edit my post and just copy the code out right?

Also, if you can (although don't cos its too much effort) you could replace the old IP for the new one...although don't worry if you can't be bothered :)

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

erm insha allah 2nite i cn edit nething which needs 2 b done? but i get confused easily so u hav 2 spell it out very clear exactly where n what??

r u gna b adding the ayahs each day until abu muslim comes back insha allah? i hope he comes back on it soon insha allah as i feel disorganised in it without having a proper ameer in charge

[.: Anna :.]

ah okay i get it.. i edited it in now

[.: Rashid :.]

ah okay i get it.. i edited it in now

Cool jazakallah

And I think he's back :D

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

oh okay cool so he will b taking back over then?
well ur one looked exactly the same tho so its cool. mine is jst the one which looks out of place..
am a tiny bit behind i only did my yesterdays ayahs this morning :(
but insha allah if i do 2day's 2day too it will b fine..

[.: Rashid :.]

im falling behind too :( The real problem is when it takes off from you. 2 ayahs a day, if you miss 2/3 days, you can lose it very easily.

Whats slightly better in this case is that you Anna have also fell behind :D Which kinda means we're at the same level so we can afford to maybe slow it down one day and carry on like that, insha'Allah.

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

hmm i dnt know abt slowing down maybe we jst need 2 make more effort? bt i admit i have not done my 2days ones yet.. i will do insha allah b4 sleeping tho.. then i dnt think ill be too behind as yesterday i did catch up, so if i do todays ones i am on target? but if u want 2 take a day off for revision of the whole surah or something, if u schedule it in im okay with it insha allah..
i find its harder if i get busy so i dnt come online n look at the threads in this area, cos altho i kno in back of my mind i hav 2 get the ayahs done 2day, wen i come n see the thread then i do my tafseer n everything is wen i go over it more times n get it stuck in my mind.. whereas like 2day iv been at work, then here and there, then baba is going america 2mro so iv been packing n busy n i didnt learn it... but i kno the first 3 words from 2days first ayah tho lol
insha allah i dnt want 2 let myself get tooo behind, bt if u want 2 schedule some revision or whatever maybe we can do it..
hey wen do we reach 50 or 25 whicever we were near... we could then take a scheduld small break, everyone sign in and say they accomplished and giv like a 2 days or 3 days for ne1 behind that they must catch up within that time so all can even out together?? like eemaan n ibn suleman and those who do not sign each day, they shud sign in on the 25% and 50% to check all are on track?

[.: Anna :.]

okay related to that what we were talking about just above...

i propose this suggestion:

tomorrow we take only 1 ayah which would be ayah #40, because this completes the page which we are on (page 3 according to my mus7af, if some ppl had a dif mus7af maybe it doesnt finish the page but i think my layout is a common one..). Its not exactly 50% through but being on the page break to me is more "tidy" way 2 do it.
So we take that ayah 2moro.. then we make a check in thread for half way point n make sure everyone makes up what they fell behind, we give like 3 days or if ppl need more like 5 but we dnt want 2 delay a very long time... then we all get started again with ppl having chance 2 catch up n get back in progress?

ur thoughts rashid?

[ibn suleman]

:up: i agree..insh'Allah will give time for me to catch up :o

thats generous inshallah, :jkk:

:up: i agree..insh'Allah will give time for me to catch up :o

ditto... :(

[.: Rashid :.]

i didn't mean a scheduled break as such...if you notice, we've actually fallen behind one day due to my dodgy posting routine, so thats what I meant :p

But alhamdulillah, sounds like a good idea. Its 83 ayahs so 40 is close enough to halfway. I think a 5 day break is too big...I'd be up for 1 day or 2, if people want 3. Anymore only if people really really need/want it.

Insha'Allah about the effort, today is my planned day for a sprint/make up session :p

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

yeh i do think 5 is alot.. it depends the ppl who are bit behind, how much do u need? eemaan n ibn sul how much wd you two want?
alhamdulillah i did my make up 2day so now i am on schedule i have up to 39 :D

so insha allah ppl cn get back 2 us quickly n decide how much break they need, plz trying 2 keep it as few as poss n catch quickly so we cn not get out of the habit of doing each day..

[.: Rashid :.]

maybe we could schedules it for the weekend, as thats when most people have more free time?

Then restart on monday...? So they get saturday and sunday to learn up to 40 without anymore being posted, then we're all in sync and can plod on up to the next decided milestone?

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

yeh that is good.. so 2moros ayah would be 40 and the break naturally comes in the weekend neway.. so then we restart from the next page 41 and 42 on monday and everyone musttt make sure they catch up during weekend...
sounds like a great plan insha allah

[.: Rashid :.]

[Eemaan]

hmm okay so what plan of action do u two want to do? do u want us to take the weekend break or not?

if your taking the weekend break for us i dont think you should (i speak for ibn suls too :D) because we're that far behind, we'd need a month to catch up :smack:

leave us behind inshallah :D

nod your head ibn suls.

[ibn suleman]

*nods head*

yup..dontt take the break for us..we're a bit slow :embar:

but we are doing it..and insha'allah we will finish it too :)

[.: Anna :.]

okay so u want to jst continue straight thru as how we are doing at the moment insha allah?

and where is rashid he didnt put 2days ayah yet.. i dnt want 2 add it cos his and abu muslim's ones make it look better

[Eemaan]

yah jes soldeir on without us, leave us behind :crying2:

we will get it finished we're just doing like an ayah a day.

Rashids in school :D

[.: Anna :.]

oh yeh i forgot he has school.
well insha allah post n tell us all wen u get the surah finished :D

[.: Rashid :.]

OK so we decided to not do the break?

I actually needed it slightly but thats fine, I'll have more time at the weekend anyway insha'Allah so will catch up then...

And yeah, sorry...school :o I'll post them up now

Insha'Allah will be on study leave very soon :D

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

masha'Allah we're doing well, we are. We are currently on ayah 42, surah Yaseen has 83 berses [not a typo], that almost bang on 50%.

Jazak'Allah to everyone participating, you're doing great masha'Allah, keep it up.

So alhamdulilah people, we are halfway through the surah, give yourselves halal marshmellow. See how easy it is, in 20 days, bi'ithnillah we will have memorised Surah Yaseen *smiles*

[.: Anna :.]

today we only done upto including ayah 41 tho btw.. 40+41 but alhamdulillah yeh half way :D
then after that we need 2 chose our next surah cos i think this project is working out quite good alhamdulillah

[Abu Muslimah]

Alhamdulilah, I think its been quite succussful aswell masha'Allah, we should have 7 surah yaseen hufaaz by the end insha'Allah *thumbs up*

insha'Allah we'll make a poll about a week before the yaseen is done to see whats tickling peoples Quran learning tastebuds, or do you think earlier? I was thinking a bit later so that it doesnt distract from the learning of yaseen, and people will feel better having learnt it first before choosing what to move onto.

EDIT: mistakee

[.: Anna :.]

a week is good imo.. suitable time for it, poll should be only like 2 days tho then announce it so ppl in main have few days notice b4 joining the next one?

[.: Rashid :.]

we didnt end up having the break in the end, i think everyone decided against it?
nice 2 hav u back alhamdulillah. im not used 2 this new user name tho it looks empty without the avatar n signature cn u hurry up n get the req post number so u cn have something back on the account in terms of avatar etc it
looks too plain :p

Haha I agree...looks waat too empty. Can't you change his registered date to last month also? :p

ohh probly u need 2 wait one month aswell sorry for that
ohh okay didnt realise u already knew but come 2 think of it u never use the hmk sign in thread i shud hav realised :smack: well masha allah that is good :up:

I was wondering that...I assumed the brother knew it already but wasn't sure. Masha'Allah.

a week is good imo.. suitable time for it, poll should be only like 2 days tho then announce it so ppl in main have few days notice b4 joining the next one?

Yep, we need to give more people notice to join, and encourage more people to join in. We should choose a smaller surah, and show people how possible it is even for busy/slow learning people :up:

Do you think we should have a slight break between finishing surah yaseen and moving onto another surah?

Or maybe having a break will break the habit which own't be productive?

Allahu 'Alam

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

we could have a break of about 2 days i think insha allah not more as it could break habit?

i dnt mind a smaller surah but plz can i jst veto ne surahs which i already know? cos i really want 2 participate? lol

[.: Rashid :.]

Yeah I don't think anyone wants to do surahs they already know...but it probably won't be fair if you have veto powers but no one else does :p

I guess it'll come down to the vote ultimately...

BTW by a shorter surah I meant like surah muzammil, or mulk, or rahman or naba...

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

well i think its fair if we giv a veto power to any of us who completes this yaseen? wdyt? cos ppl who complete it shows they made the commitment and they want 2 participate insha allah.. so not fair if they cant join as they kno it already?
erm and btw i would kind of hav 2 veto all those 4 which u mentioned :$

[.: Anna :.]

& who is putting 2days ayahs? u or abu muslim?

[.: Rashid :.]

OK that sounds good...everyone who has completed this one can have a veto power. A problem might arise though...as we go along, more people will join the project and more people will complete it and they will all have veto powers, and we may get to a stage where we won't be able to settle on a surah for everyone to learn, because someone with a veto power will already know it :smack:

And haha :o Well that may be a problem...those were my top 4 to learn next :p What other major surahs are there we could learn?

& who is putting 2days ayahs? u or abu muslim?

Abu Muslim's back so I thought he's doing it...

-Rashid

[Abu Muslim]

I agree with this idea, the people who are actually participating get priority over those who are not, what might work is the ones who completed it, get to choose the 5 or so surahs to put into the poll to choose from, then the rest is upto the "non veto" members. Lol, all this talk of veto reminds me of the UN. Bagsy I'm not kofi annan.

& who is putting 2days ayahs? u or abu muslim?

insha'Allah I'll be putting the ayaatayn from now on, back to 12am. Rashid already put yest ayaatayn right, so next one is ayaats 42 and 43 for 12am tonight?

[.: Anna :.]

yep 12am is fine with me :D

erm well rashid for small surahs there are loads i dnt know.. for example i wd like 2 learn surat ul insaan, al ma3arij, noo7, saff, jumuah, taghaabun, qalam, mudhaththir... etc

[.: Rashid :.]

Yeah but you see my point about where that will lead right?

If we get enough people, do you think we'd be able to do 2 seperate surahs and people have a choice? I think from this (http://ummah.com/forum/showthread.php?t=121504&) poll the second most demanded surah after yaseen was mulk so we should do that...?

And I think veto powers should only go to participators/completors of this project...to avoid the problem I explained earlier. So thats Abu Muslim[ah], Anna, yours sincerely, Sulaiman, Eemaan, Ibn suleman [ghira and xyz?]

Participators/completors of the next surah will have no such powers :p

-Rashid

2 seperate surahs could work, but the problem with that is, it might split people, whats nice about this project is, everyones in it together, going same pace [mostly] and all that. If its split, we may get everyone doing one surah and the one person participating in another.

Veto does go the Surah Yaseen completers insha'Allah. And then whoever completes the next surah will get their own superman powers aswell thereafter...

Yeah thats why I meant...if we get enough people. Say 3/4+ people in each surah project is enough for it to run?

Thats exactly what I'm tryna avoid :smack: because what will happen is, after we finish the 2nd surah, assuming its more popular, we'll then have say 8 people with vetos, and then after the 3rd (assuming 3 more peopel join) we'll have 12 people with vetos...and it'll get harder and harder to find a surah that no one vetos.

For this reason, only us lot should have vetos...ever :D

You like power dont ya *sticky tongue out*

3/4 people would be alright, even 2, but its just if there is one, he/she might feel a little left out while everyone learning something else.

Bunch of eager beavers we are, we'll decide on details later before moving onto another surah, lets just concentrate and finish Surah Yaseen first insha'Allah *smiles*

[.: Anna :.]

i think its okay if we give them veto powers aswell insha allah as surely we will b able 2 find something to do?
i also dnt think its good 2 have two surahs at once... i like having just the one. with two i kno i will probly try 2 do both of em at once n then mayb i will fall behind :o
i kno alot of ppl wanted 2 do mulk but we cn find something else that ppl like, they shud b eager 2 do any insha allah :p

lol some confusion, I think its better we all decide nearer the time insha'Allah or all our thoughts will be diverted to the new surah when we havnt even finished the current first one.

The two surah system shouldnt be a problem for you because one of the surahs would be a long and one shorter, and most likely you would have memorised the shorter one. [e.g Surah Mulk and Surah Saffat]

My personal recommendation is Surah Waqiah, chapter 56. I think everyone will enjoy learning that one, it flows really nice and it has short ayaats within it, so will be easy to read/learn plus its not too long and not too short and the world hasnt memorised it. Pluus, its one of my personal favourites *smiles*

[.: Anna :.]

I would be happy with waaqiah insha allah :)
but yeh we can decide nearer the time tho

[.: Rashid :.]

waqiah sounds good :)

-Rashid

[Eemaan]

slam klum :D

a'think you should do a smaller surahs next too. my initial thought were do surah mulk based on its popularity in ibn suls intial poll, but now smaller surahs would be more convinient for folk like me cos we're behind. that way you guys can twaddle on with smaller ones and hopefully by the time youve done a few the rest of us will have caught up to do surah mulk in unison inshallah.

does that make sense @)

[.: Rashid :.]

Made sense to me :p but Anna doesn't want to do surah mulk cos masha'Allah she already knows it (as well as quite a few other surahs :p)

I've actually fallen behind as well :( :o not anywhere near as much as you and ibn sul I don't think but not looking good...insha'Allah gonna try and do a sprint tomorrow and catch up...its annoying trying to prioritise this with revision :( (of course if I didn't fall behind and just did an hour a day there'd be no problem...)

dont let anna bully you :p do smaller surahs cos i say so :coolbro:

oh great, feel much better :crying2:

try learning first thing in morn or after fajr. time spans are usually longer than they are in the evening and rash get to bed early :)

Haha :p Well we kinda decided that me and Anna (assuming I finish on time :|) have vetos so...

Yeah I should definitely do it in the morning...my current routine is something like: wake up, brush teeth, eat breakfast, go on ummah/check mail/intert-forum-name-here etc etc then plan to start revision but actually not until like zuhr time :o do zuhr, start revision :p :(

Going bed early? Hmm...nah...don't work with me :p I should probably try...hmmmm....

It is crap :(

I think I'll try not sleeping after fajr for one...maybe if I do sleep not go on forums/email/other-chat first thing but learn ayahs...hmmm...Also might be an idea to stick to my plans more :p (there's no easy way of fixing that though other than will power)

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

im fine with smaller surahs just not mulk cos i kno it, its not fair no? i would b left out

btw i am behind aswell now... i think from 2day and yesterday :( insha allah ill try 2 catch up but i have alot on my schedule at the moment altho insha allah i shud b able 2 make time. baba is back in the uk i can ask him 2 test me insha allah :) altho at the moment we have family member in hospital so going everyday there.. and i got exams aswell and guests over and stuff which is keeping me busy with all these things...
i have still been revising ya seen but i jst feel i am not properly on top of it the past couple of days.. im sure insha allah i can catch up tho n finish on schedule i will really try

but yeh for the next surah a small one i dnt mind, like talaq or saff or something, they are small! i dnt mind doing.. jst not mulk :p

Kinda makes me feel better you're behind as well :p Insha'Allah we'll be able to catch up to where we should be...

I guess we'll solve the "which surah next" question when we get there...

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

lol actually now i came in this area n i thought ohh am behind n all so i checked n actually i did do yesterdays altho i didnt sign it in, so now i jst learned 2days and alhamdulillah im back on track although this whole page which we are on, i need 2 make it more firm insha allah i have 2 recite 2 baba n make sure i can do it without mistakes as so far i havent had ne1 to check me in this page. i think the ayahs from the beginning of the week i am a little bit weaker in them :S

[.: Rashid :.]

I just recite and if I get to any points I have doubts about check to see if I made mistakes...no need for a 2nd person :up:

I basically divide what we've learnt into blocks of 10 ayahs and revise the block to get it like solid. Alhamdulillah block 1 and 2 are completely firm, with 3 about 95%. Still learning block 4 :o

e.g. block 1 is ayah 6-15, block 2 is 16-25 so on. If I feel the latest ones I've been learning are weaker I just revise the last block e.g. atm from subhanallathee khalaqal azwaajaa onwards

[Abu Muslim]

Don't worry about falling behind tulaab, you're doing well masha'Allah, behind an ayaatayn or 2 is no worries, just spend double the time one day and you're back to normal and everyone is happy.

Ya know, I came up with an idea storm but I dont know what to make of it, so Im holding a shura council with you guys.

-----

I was thikning righty, everyone who succussfully completes the surahs, gets a prize insha'Allah, a gift or shall I say a reward *smiles*

Now, we have problemtayn [thats 2 problems in Abu Muslimahs language]..since most people are in UK, should be alright to send plus should encourage others but make sure you doing it for the sake of Allah and not for the prize, not that the prize is that great..but the 2 problems, what to give? And what do you guys make of the idea? Thoughts and input appreciated. *smiles*

[.: Anna :.]

lol i dnt kno about ne prize i dnt think we need to as its too much for someone 2 hav 2 go n get the prizes and stuff and we have 2 do it fee sabeelillaah neway dnt want to add ne temptation into the neya like "oh we get a prize, come on we have 2 finish it" lol :embar:
well i think we could have the veto thing as our prize lol :p

I'm all up for it. You can give me your Mac as a prize insha'Allah :D

Ah thats true, the dunya temptation, guess its undeeded. I was just thinking cos like I've seen in some places, they give prizes for best student or best qiraat or something, so should be alright..but guess it probably is uneeded.

Getting prizes isnt a hassle, its thinking of what prize to get and lol, you love that word veto, or as asians would say beto.

I wasn't thinking a mega prize, not like £100 each, something small, if its like £2 each, 5 people is only £10 which isnt bad. But I guess its just those ideas that come and go, ah well.

[Ghira]

Maybe we can use paltalk to see if the recitation we are having is correct. I know from experience if you listening to the person you can tell their mistakes.

[.: Anna :.]

yeh pal talk is very good masha allah, the sisters forum we already organised a room and stuff for ourselves. yes it will b a good idea insha allah if brothers organise summat too :up:

[Abu Muslimah]

As you may have noticed, Abu Muslimah is now posting the ayaats from now on bi'ithnillah, erm, yea. Abu Muslim needs a rest, I'm getting way too distracted by the forum and I kinda got exams coming up and this way I ensure I only come for the Quran..*purple faced smiley*

I know it looks plain and all that without the avatar, but imagine it like I changed clothes or something. Actually clothes parable isnt a good one, means I have none, erm, imagine like I just came back from Hajj and got head shaved so like waiting for it to grow back and it takes a month.

So yea, I know its plain and I apologise, the avatar and sig will come in good time insha'Allah unless ukhtee Anna can change the month I joined or go into admin and give me the privaleges to have them or something.

And apart from that, keep it up people, masha'Allah we doing well, so close to finishing. You can all play with your PS3's once we done *sticky tongue out*

[.: Anna :.]

well i think u dnt have too long to wait insha allah. i dont kno how 2 edit ur joining month. at least ur post count is ready!

[Abu Muslimah]

well i think u dnt have too long to wait insha allah. i dont kno how 2 edit ur joining month. at least ur post count is ready!

Ya jazak'Allah for that. Dont know if its a literal month or when the month changes, i.e may straight to june. So if it is, only like 4 days..if it isnt, ah well.

And regarding the paltalk idea, masha'Allah thats a good idea, the brothers have something simliar running but with MSN..*smiles*

[.: Anna :.]

its a literal month as far as i kno

[Abu Muslimah]

Ah righty, laysa mushkilah.

Was just checking the homework, masha'Allah to everyone who has done it and is doing it.. anna, rashid, ghira and sulaiman harun. But I noticed baba hasnt been signed on for a while, how is he getting along ukhtee Anna?

p.s I seem to randomly remember stuff at 4am lol, we're a week away from the next surah insha'Allah, new surah topic coming up..

[.: Rashid :.]

Masha'Allah, ghira's finished

I've fallen severely behind sulaiman and anna :(

Insha'Allah can still catch up before the end...

One thing I'm happy about, managed to get the arabic workig properly in firefox :D Thanks to King Abdulaziz City For Science And Technology :p

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

baba got very behind as he had exams, then had 2 go 2 america on research then he had project... so yeh he is actually very behind as showed in the homework sheet but insha allah mayb he can do the next one. he is helping me on mine tho.
rashid where u up to? insha allah u cn catch up :up:

Yeah thats fair enough...thats a lot of stuff :p

Subhanallah, I'm on ayah 55 so far, you're on 71 :rubeyes: Insha'Allah I can do another 4-5 today get myself up to 60. If I maintain a similar pace I'll be able to catch up in a few days insha'Allah.

Need to do zuhr, have a drink take a break eat something, then back to it insha'Allah :up:

-Rashid

[.: Anna :.]

yeah insha allah u will b able.
lol u know why i am on this ayah because it really gets to me if im more than couple of days behind i feel so unorganised i quickly learn them and do them. alhamdulillah i can learn it quite quickly once i make the effort :D

i saw ur poll in general... i am still maintaining my veto power okay!! i mean it!

Give them my regards and while you're there, ask them for a ps3 *sticky tongue out*

Problem I gots now is with this account, I cant post properly because the BBCode doesnt show till after I post which makes it all the harder cos I gotta estimate and manually put in the BB. Ah vell.


i saw ur poll in general... i am still maintaining my veto power okay!! i mean it!

How I thought the beto could work so its fair is, you and rasheed and sulaiman harun and ghira get 2 votes. So every one vote you do is worht 2 votes, because to take out an entire surah might be a bit unfair, and what if rashid, you and sulaiman beto a surah each, that way only one surah left. Pluus, anwyays, looks like surah waqiah is winning as it is *smiles*

Oh yea and rashid, I forgot to add something to that intitial post in the other surah you want to learn topic, forgot what for now, but you might want to mention that you, rashid and anna have betos [purpose typo], so one vote = 2. And also, it probably needs bumping everyday probs cos it keeps dying in general. *smiles*

[perfectpearl]

Mashaa Allah I wanna be a part of this.

Mashaa Allah I wanna be a part of this.

masha'Allah thats great ukhtee. The basic premise [lol what a word] is we go through a surah together, 2 ayaats a day, thats all you gotta learn, and before you know it, you've just memorised the surah.

If you want to sign up, probably best if you start when the new surah begins along with everyone else, all you gots to do is tell us ur participating, memorise the 2 ayaats and then sign in saying you've done it. Nothing more, easier than saying im from the usa buiudduffu, two times a day everyday and more rewarding.

Would be cool if we have you on board ukhtee, you'll be our first international student, actually you'll be our second, Sulaiman already is so we have like international students.

*american girl voice*Thats like so cool.

Actually, more arabic heading your way, if you want to say the above phrase in arabic, you can apply it to anything, just change "nasheed"..and ah, you might want to change jihad aswell dont want to be saying this jihadi chocolate is so cool.

third time im posting this :embar: but erm its quite appropriate :D


The further away you are from something the more impossible it seems.

When people hear of stories of how the salaf competed the Qur'an in one night, in one rakat and can not believe it's possible, it's because they are so far away from it.

Like the person who is learning a small surah like surah ad-duha and it is taking him ages, and when he hears someone who has completed memorising teh whole Qur'an he thinks its impossible, ye
